Anyone have pain With where the insertions site is. It was put in yesterday and I didn't even feel it, today it's hard to bend down get up and sit down? Any advice. I've also had a bad cough so idk if coughing so much activated it or what.

I got mine about a week and half ago and I always get a red welp where my insertion site is. This is normal according to my home health nurse and they recommend changing the site every day. I change mine whenever my syringe runs out which is ever 16-20 hours. Also make sure you are rotating sites. Letting hot water run over your belly in the shower really helps with the soreness. I've also heard people say that alternating warm and cold compresses helps them. Some of my sites are definitely more painful then others and I'm sure the coughing isn't making that an easier for you :( hope you feel better and I hope this helps.
